Wendy Mitchell Photography | Buffalo Wedding Photography bio picture

Happy you're here!

This site is a collection all all the work (and some personal photography) I've done since January 2009.  Go back through the archives, sort by category, however you'd like to browse.  Stay a while!

A little about me: I grew up in "The Southern Tier" of Western NY, graduated from Falconer High School in 1999, Jamestown Community College (AA in Media Arts) in 2001, and Rochester Institute of Technology (BFA in Professional Photographic Illustration) in 2004.  I have been photographing weddings full-time in the Buffalo area as Wendy Mitchell Photography since January 2005, and it's my most favorite thing to do!  I live in Alden, NY (about 30 min. east of downtown Buffalo) with my husband and our 4-year-old son. 

I'm glad you found your way to my site.  Please enjoy looking through my photos, and if you'd like to talk to me about scheduling a wedding or other shoot, please contact me using the link above!

Jared & Rachel – August 20, 2010

I am short on time because I’m out the door soon to photograph another wedding today, but here’s Jared & Rachel from yesterday – Rachel’s smile and laugh were the cutest, and I can see why Jared loves her. :)

Buffalo Botanical Gardens. Go there.


Phew because it’s over, or Phew because it’s hot? I think a bit of both!!


Reception at Curly’s. Window light is my weekend paramour.

What do you do if there’s any empty seat at your table? Make a friend out of your centerpiece, of course.

I accused them of stealing music off my computer. Their cocktail music was right on the money.



Jared’s dad’s toast included something about the families getting together again… maybe for a christening? That got a laugh.

Kyle took his phone up for his toast “because I don’t want to forget what I was going to say and look like an idiot, and apparently there’s an app for that.”

His toast was great. Good advice and good laughs.


Thank you guys, for having me, and I hope you had a wonderful evening and will have a wonderful honeymoon and life together!

August 22, 2010 - 3:40 pm jenn ayres - Really fantastic shots, Wendy! You have such a talent for capturing honest, "in-the-moment" emotion. Your detail shots are also amazing...LOVE all of them!! :)

August 23, 2010 - 11:39 am Wendy - Thanks everybody! The way the light was in that room was amazing but it did require shooting wide open (f/1.8 on my 85) at 6400ISO, but it still beat the pants off any kind of artificial light!

August 23, 2010 - 9:55 pm Jared - The pics are great, Wendy! Nice work!

August 31, 2010 - 11:24 am Mary - Wendy -- these pics are amazing. Where are the rest? I am itching to see the group shot out front of The Botan :) These truly are awesome pics! The couple was super fun which I am sure made it a little easier on you. Hope to see the rest soon!
